Transmigrating into One Piece: The Peerless King

In the small town where the Navy's G5 branch is located.

Early in the morning, Zhao Hai led several naval officers to patrol the area around the town.

Although this town is located in the high-risk area of ​​the New World, its economy is undeniably quite good.

It has all kinds of buildings, wide roads, huge squares and other infrastructure.

Normally, these tasks wouldn't have required Zhao Hai, a naval colonel, to do them personally. However, since he now had a team under his command, Zhao Hai couldn't resist showing off.

He wanted to experience what it felt like to be admired, even though there were many young men and women in the Navy Headquarters who also idolized him.

However, Zhao Hai was completely unmoved by this. After all, without the atmosphere of genuine popular support, it would be difficult to get motivated.

Simultaneously.

Inside the office of Vice Admiral Vergo, G5 Naval Branch.

A middle-aged man in a naval admiral's uniform was writing a document at his desk, while a guard stood ramrod straight beside him.

Suddenly, the middle-aged man stopped what he was doing and asked the guard beside him in a low voice, "By the way, how is that Caribbean Sea guy doing lately?"

"Reporting to Vice Admiral Vergo, Caribbean has been staying at the base since he intimidated those naval forces a few days ago, but this morning he took a few naval personnel to town."

The bodyguard beside Lieutenant General Vergo answered truthfully.

Lieutenant General Vergo's guards knew exactly where Zhao Hai was, and even the fact that Zhao Hai had just left the base did not escape their notice.

"Did they take the navy to town?"

Vice Admiral Vergo pondered for a moment, then smiled faintly and said, "A boy is still a boy. Having just come from the Marine Headquarters, it's inevitable that he'll be curious about new and interesting places."

"Keep a close watch on him in secret, and report to me immediately if anything happens," Lieutenant General Vergo instructed his bodyguard.

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, the guard withdrew from Lieutenant General Vergo's office.

"A top genius of the Navy Headquarters? Hopefully, you'll be sensible and work for our Don Quixote family, otherwise..."

Looking in the direction of the town, a hint of ruthlessness appeared on Lieutenant General Vergo's face.

……

Meanwhile, in the town, Zhao Hai led a group of naval personnel to the town's busiest market.

Looking at the various shops around him, listening to the endless calls of vendors, and seeing all sorts of people coming to the market, Zhao Hai was very satisfied.

"Shouldn't we go and offer our condolences to these people?"

Looking at the crowd around him, Zhao Hai had some ideas pop into his head.

This outreach is a technical task, since there are so many people here, it's impossible to conduct a census of everyone.

So Zhao Hai began to carefully observe the people around him, preparing to select typical individuals for a grassroots survey.

"what?"

Just as Zhao Hai was searching for his target, a strange group came into his view.

Following Zhao Hai's gaze, he saw a middle-aged man with a scar in front of him hawking fruit.

Of course, this wasn't the reason Zhao Hai noticed him at first glance. What really caught Zhao Hai's attention was the three thug-like men beside him who seemed to be causing trouble, and the people around them were afraid of these three thugs and dared not step forward to help.

Punishing street bullies was a golden opportunity to infiltrate the grassroots ranks, and Zhao Hai naturally wouldn't let it pass.

"You all wait here, I'll go take a look by myself."

After giving instructions to his subordinates, Zhao Hai walked alone toward the scarred man.

"Why don't you pay protection money? Everyone else has!"

"Do you think having a scar on your face makes you a great person who has weathered many storms?"

Before Zhao Hai could even get close, he heard the three thugs shouting and demanding bail from the scarred man.

The scarred man was clearly also afraid of them, his hands tightly twisting the hem of his clothes, not daring to utter any rebuttal, just silently enduring it.

"Are you fucking mute? Can't you hear me talking to you?"

One of the three thugs, clearly the leader, shouted at the silent, scarred man.

After a long pause, the scarred man finally answered tremblingly, "I...I have no money."

"I have no money!"

Upon hearing the scarred man say he had no money, the three men's expressions immediately changed, and they became furious.

"If you don't have money, how dare your mother sell things on the street I manage? You're asking for trouble!"

The gang leader roared and delivered a side kick aimed at the scarred man's abdomen.

This thug was extremely ruthless; he used all his strength. If the kick had landed, the scarred man would probably have been bedridden for a long time.

Judging from the scarred man's worn-out clothes, he clearly couldn't afford the expensive medical bills, so it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the thug's attack was meant to kill him.

How could Zhao Hai allow such a thing to happen before his eyes? Just as the thug's foot was about to touch the scarred man...

Zhao Hai dodged and landed, reaching out his right hand to grab the thug's kicking foot.

"Humph!"

Zhao Hai's outstretched hand firmly grasped the thug's kicking foot, letting out a loud, muffled groan.

Then she turned around gently, looked at the scarred man with an innocent expression, and asked, "Uncle, how did you get that scar on your face?"

Startled by this sudden turn of events, the scarred man froze on the spot. After a long while, he stammered, "I was injured... in the chaos of war a few years ago."

"Oh." Zhao Hai nodded seriously.

"You fucking still won't let go? Kid, do you know who I am?"

The thug whose foot was being held by Zhao Hai saw that Zhao Hai was ignoring him and that he couldn't break free from Zhao Hai's clutches no matter how hard he tried, so he roared angrily.

"Who are you? How would I know? I'm not your father. You should go back and ask your mother."

Upon hearing the thug's voice, Zhao Hai revealed an innocent smile.

The onlookers around Zhao Hai were barely able to suppress their laughter when they heard his words. If they weren't afraid of the threats from the three thugs, they probably would have burst into laughter by now.

"Your mother!"

Hearing this, the gang leader's anger flared, and he roared at his two companions who were standing there in a daze, "What are you standing there for? Get up here!"

Hearing the thug leader's roar, the other two companions also yelled and charged towards Zhao Hai.

"You're here, why are you shouting so loudly? What if people misunderstand?"

"Fuck you, so noisy!"

Hearing the thugs' awful cries, Zhao Hai couldn't stand it anymore. He cursed under his breath and forcefully pushed the other two thugs away with his right hand, which was gripping the leader's foot.

Bang!Bang!Bang!

With a strong push from Zhao Hai, the three thugs were thrown to the ground.

After dealing with the three thugs, Zhao Hai waved to the navy in the distance.

"Colonel!"

A squad of naval personnel marched in neat formation and saluted Zhao Hai.

The surrounding crowd stared at Zhao Hai in astonishment, finding it hard to believe that such a young man was already a naval captain.

The three thugs who had been knocked to the ground by Zhao Hai trembled with fear upon hearing his identity.

"Take them back!"

Zhao Hai pointed to the three thugs on the ground and gave instructions to the navy officer beside him.

"Yes!"

Subsequently, the three thugs were taken away by the navy, their faces ashen.

Just as Zhao Hai thought he had won over the masses, he noticed something that really annoyed him: when they arrested the three thugs, his navy men brazenly picked up the scarred man's fruit and stuffed it into their own pockets.

Zhao Hai was extremely embarrassed. If he had known this would be the outcome, he would never have invited these naval personnel who had insulted his reputation to come and put on such a show of being more trouble than they were worth.

However, regret was useless at this point, and Zhao Hai could only lament his unfortunate fate.

"Colonel, thank you for getting me out of that predicament. Here, take these fruits."

Just as Zhao Hai was feeling embarrassed, the scarred man handed him a basket of fruit.

Zhao Haimu blankly accepted the fruit offered by the scarred man, but he had no idea how he ended up back at the naval base.

Chapter Seventy-One Rectification

In the barracks of the Navy's G5 branch, Zhao Hai carries a basket of fruit.

Looking at the laughing and joking sailors around him, especially the few who had followed him to the town earlier, now swaggering around eating fruit, Zhao Hai felt incredibly conflicted.

"The discipline of this group of naval personnel is too poor and must be rectified, otherwise the task of reforming the Navy G5 branch will be nothing but empty talk."

With this thought in mind, Zhao Hai's expression hardened, and he loudly ordered the surrounding navy personnel, "Attention!"

Swish!Swish!Swish!

At Zhao Hai's command, the navy personnel immediately sprang into action and formed ranks.

After all, Zhao Hai's strength was undeniable, which deeply impressed these men, so they dared not disobey his orders.

Looking around at the navy personnel standing in formation, Zhao Hai glanced at them indifferently and said, "All the navy personnel who came with me today, step forward!"

Swish!Swish!Swish!

A squad of naval soldiers strode out proudly from the ranks.

"very good."

Nodding, Zhao Hai pointed to a line of soldiers and slowly said, "Do you know what they did in town today?"

Zhao Hai spoke in a very soft tone, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

Upon hearing Zhao Hai's question, one of the soldiers in the group immediately replied loudly, "Reporting to the colonel, I know about this. I told you, the colonel led them to punish the thugs in the town today."

"Reporting to the Colonel, I have also heard about this matter. This is roughly what happened. The Colonel is truly compassionate towards the people."
